JavatoXML utility?

[Mehran]

I am looking for a utility that will convert an actual object to XML.

Consider a class:

public class Name {
  public string firstName;
  public string lastName"

  public Name() {
    firstName="John";
    lastName="Smith";
  }
}

Suppose we have an instance "myName" of "Name". Suppose the utility is called 
"JavatoXML" and has a method called "convert".

xml = new JavatoXML();
xml.convert(myName);

I am looking for a utility that will then output:

<Name>
  <firstName>John</firstName>
  <lastName>Smith</lastName>
</Name>


Thanks
Mehran
